Chairperson: Linnea Flostrand
Summary
The Pacific Scientific Advice Review Committee (PSARC) Pelagics Subcommittee met April 2, 2009 at the Pacific Biological Station in Nanaimo, B.C. The purpose of the meeting was to review a working paper presenting the application of results from a fishery-independent trawl survey to estimate Pacific sardine seasonal migration into Canadian waters. The PSARC review was requested by DFO Fisheries and Aquaculture Management to guide development of the 2009 Pacific Sardine Integrated Fishery Management Plan. Two formal reviews of the working paper were presented and twenty-one Subcommittee participants attended the meeting, consisting of representatives from DFO, industry and First Nations. The paper was accepted subject to minor revisions. Additional meeting recommendations and conclusions relate to future work.
